Nissan have announced the introduction of the GT-R 2012 model with even more power.
Nissan are at it again. The GT-R has had another annual upgrade – that’s one every year since its launch in 2007 – and the latest one has added another 30 bhp to the already impressive 523 bhp available on the 2011 model. The improvements don’t end with the increased power though, somehow they have managed to increase the fuel consumption to 24 mpg (up from 23.5 mpg).
On the handling side of things, the suspension has been upgraded too with the springs on the driver’s side stiffer than the others to compensate for the driver’s weight. It also has a stronger body for extra rigidity and enhanced transmission feel.
The engines responsiveness and torque at low to mid revolutions and power at high revolutions has been increase due to better intake efficiency and air flow resistance.
In the interior Nissan have added blue instrument lighting to match the shift indicator light to give a more sophisticated feel. The sound system has also been upgraded to Bose Precision woofers.
The Nissan GT-R 2012 model year will be available in European showrooms in early 2012.
